Title: SIMD lapped transform-based digital media encoding/decoding
Inventor: CHENGJIE TU
IPC: G06K9/36
Filed: 2006-08-03
Granted: 2011-07-14
Abstract: A block transform-based digital media codec achieves faster performance by re-mapping components of the digital media data into vectors or parallel units on which many operations of the transforms can be performed on a parallel or single-instruction, multiple data (SIMD) basis. In the case of a one-dimensional lapped biorthogonal transform, the digital media data components are re-mapped into vectors on which butterfly stages of both overlap pre-/post-filter and block transform portions of the lapped transform can be performed on a SIMD basis. In the case of a two-dimensional lapped biorthogonal transform, the digital media data components are re-mapped into vectors on which a Hadamard operator of both overlap pre-/post-filter and block transform can be performed on a SIMD basis.

Title: Scalable compressed audio bit stream and codec using a hierarchical filterbank and multichannel joint coding
Inventor: SHMUNK DMITRY V
IPC: G10L19/00
Filed: 2006-06-16
Granted: 2011-08-18
Abstract: A method for compressing audio input signals to form a master bit stream that can be scaled to form a scaled bit stream having an arbitrarily prescribed data rate. A hierarchical filterbank (2100) decomposes the input signal into a multi-resolution time/frequency representation from which the encoder can efficiently extract both tonal (2106) and residual components (2117). The components are ranked and then quantized with reference to the same masking function or different psychoacoustic criteria. The selected tonal components are suitably encoded using differential coding extended to multichannel audio. The time-sample and scale factor components that make up the residual components are encoded using joint channel coding (JCC) extended to multichannel audio. A decoder uses an inverse hierarchical filterbank to reconstruct the audio signals from the tonal and residual components in the scaled bit stream.

Title: Polarization conversion system and method for stereoscopic projection
Inventor: ROBINSON MICHAEL G
IPC: G02B30/25
Filed: 2008-05-09
Granted: 2014-05-22
Abstract: A polarization conversion system separates light from an unpolarized image source into a first state of polarization (SOP) and an orthogonal second SOP, and directs the polarized light on first and second light paths. The SOP of light on only one of the light paths is transformed to an orthogonal state such that both light paths have the same SOP. A polarization modulator temporally modulates the light on the first and second light paths to first and second output states of polarization. First and second projection lenses direct light on the first and second light paths toward a projection screen to form substantially overlapping polarization encoded images. The polarization modulator may be located before or after the projection lenses. The polarization-encoded images may be viewed using eyewear with appropriate polarization filters.
